Installing grub-efi-amd64

[special_case]

I had changed the bios on my machine and, I believe, subsequent to that I'm getting messages about installing grub-efi-amd64. But apt is complaining about package conflicts and I'm afraid to force it. What do people recommend?

Re-executing '/etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-proxmox-boot' in new private mount namespace..
No /etc/kernel/proxmox-boot-uuids found, skipping ESP sync.
System booted in EFI-mode but 'grub-efi-amd64' meta-package not installed!
Install 'grub-efi-amd64' to get updates.
Couldn't find EFI system partition. It is recommended to mount it to /boot or /efi.
Alternatively, use --esp-path= to specify path to mount point.
root@proxmox:~# apt-get install grub-efi-amd64

You have the enterprise repositories configured but have not installed a subscription to use them. Please read the manual (or search the forum, as this is a very common issue) on how to configure an alternative repository or how to add your (paid) subscription: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#sysadmin_package_repositories

Thanks, @leesteken. That has fixed the package install issues, but has highlighted an EFI boot issue which I'll post in a separate thread...
